development of the multistakeholder approach
and through closer engagement with
multilateral processes. Finally the session
will consider what is meant by the idea of a

and propose specific steps to be taken to
establish a stronger, more strategic <dfn

that operates on the basis of a multi-year
plan working to the goal of the idea of an
“IGF plus” with the institutional capacity,

<p><span><span><span><span><span><span>Questions and topics
to be addressed </span></span></span></span></span></span></p>
<p><span><span><span><span><span><span>Part I:
Past/Origins </span></span></span></span></span></span></p>
<p><span><span><span><span><span><span>1. Over the years
there have been various expressions of
frustration with the <dfn title="Internet
Governance Forum">IGF</dfn> supposedly being
just a “talk shop” that does not take binding
decisions. But this is an essential part of
the <dfn title="Internet Governance Forum">IGF</dfn>’s
DNA, as it is what governments and
stakeholders at the 2005 Tunis <dfn
title="World Summit on the Information
Society">WSIS</dfn> summit thought was
needed and what they could agree to. To set
the stage for our discussion, please reflect
on the considerations and processes that
shaped the fundamental features of the <dfn
title="Internet Governance Forum">IGF</dfn>’s
design and made it what it has become today.</span></span></span></span></span></span></p>
<p><span><span><span><span><span><span>2. The <dfn
title="Internet Governance Forum">IGF</dfn>
Mandate approved by the 2005 Tunis <dfn
title="World Summit on the Information
Society">WSIS</dfn> summit included
provisions stating that the <dfn
title="Internet Governance Forum">IGF</dfn>
should “Promote and assess, on an ongoing
basis, the embodiment of <dfn title="World
Summit on the Information Society">WSIS</dfn>
principles in Internet Governance processes;”
and “Identify emerging issues, bring them to
the attention of the relevant bodies and the
general public, and, where appropriate, make
recommendations.” To what extent has the <dfn
title="Internet Governance Forum">IGF</dfn>
pursued these objectives? What has been
achieved or not regarding these functions, and
why?</span></span></span></span></span></span></p>
<p><span><span><span><span><span><span>3. The global
Internet governance agenda has evolved
significantly over the past sixteen years,
with many of the issues and political dynamics
that animated early IGFs drifting from center
stage while new ones came to the fore. What
have been the key shifts in substantive focus
and institutional dynamics over the course of
the <dfn title="Internet Governance Forum">IGF</dfn>’s
history to date?</span></span></span></span></span></span></p>
<p><span><span><span><span><span><span>Part II – Present
dynamics</span></span></span></span></span></span></p>
<p><span><span><span><span><span><span>1. Name one positive
change or achievement that you feel can be
attributed to the <dfn title="Internet
Governance Forum">IGF</dfn>. Is there
anything significant that might have turned
out differently if we had not had the <dfn
title="Internet Governance Forum">IGF</dfn>?</span></span></span></span></span></span></p>
<p><span><span><span><span><span><span>2. Has the <dfn
title="Internet Governance Forum">IGF</dfn>
altered the global discourse or debate in any
significant ways? How much does such discourse
and soft norms matter, relative to negotiated
formal agreements?</span></span></span></span></span></span></p>
<p><span><span><span><span><span><span>3. The <dfn
title="Internet Governance Forum">IGF</dfn>
has spawned new collaborative processes that
work on an intersessional basis and then feed
into the meetings, e.g. the policy networks,
the <dfn title="National and Regional IGF
Initiatives">NRIs</dfn>, the DCs and the
BPFs. Have these efforts yielded any
important results? What could be done to
increase their salience? What roles could they
play going forward as the landscape of
Internet governance and digital cooperation
continues to evolve?</span></span></span></span></span></span></p>
<p><span><span><span><span><span><span>4. How has the
multistakeholder approach worked in the <dfn
title="Internet Governance Forum">IGF</dfn>?
Is it continuing to develop conceptually and
practically, or has it stagnated? If it has,
what can be done to renew it?</span></span></span></span></span></span></p>
<p><span><span><span><span><span><span>Part III:
Futures/Options</span></span></span></span></span></span></p>
<p><span><span><span><span><span><span>1. There have been
various calls, including from high-level
government figures, for the <dfn
title="Internet Governance Forum">IGF</dfn>
to produce more tangible outcomes. What forms
could these take? What would be needed for the
international community to agree to such a
process and outcome?</span></span></span></span></span></span></p>
<p><span><span><span><span><span><span>2. With regard to
the United Nations’ Roadmap and Common Agenda,
what roles and value-added do you see for the
<dfn title="Internet Governance Forum">IGF</dfn>?
Do you see a specific role of the <dfn
title="Internet Governance Forum">IGF</dfn>
with regard to the proposed Global Digital
Compact?</span></span></span></span></span></span></p>
<p><span><span><span><span><span><span>3. What is your view
of the terms of reference for the new
Leadership Panel (formerly referred to as the
MHLB)? How can we make this a useful
grouping? What about the <dfn
title="Multistakeholder Advisory Group">MAG</dfn>,
do its terms of reference and functioning need
to change? </span></span></span></span></span></span></p>
<p><span><span><span><span><span><span>4. Proposals have
been made for the <dfn title="Internet
Governance Forum">IGF</dfn> Secretariat and
<dfn title="Multistakeholder Advisory Group">MAG</dfn>
to work collaboratively on a multi-year plan.
Do you think this is feasible? How would you
go about developing and implementing such a
plan?</span></span></span></span></span></span></p>
<p><span><span><span><span><span><span>5. Name one aspect
of how the <dfn title="Internet Governance
Forum">IGF</dfn> operates that you would
change, and one aspect you would like to
retain.</span></span></span></span></span></span></p>
